Y site digo, digo
Que estoy en un lugar
Donde se vive entre colores
Ah-ah
Y en una esquina, esquina
A ella la vi pasar
Llena de luz y de canciones
Y me dijo así

And if I say to you, I say
That I am in a place
Where life is colourful
Ah-ah
And on a corner, corner
I saw her pass by
Full of light and music
And she said to me like this

Cógeme bien de la mano
Porque yo no te la voy a soltar

Hold my hand tightly
Because I won’t let go of yours

Yo lo bailo así, lo bailo así
Como candela
Ella me ensena saber vivir
Fue la primera
Cambiaste mi vida
Con esa sonrisa
Yo lo bailo así, lo bailo así
Como, como Candela

I dance it like this, I dance it like this
Like flame
She taught me how to live
She was the first
You changed my life
With that smile
I dance it like this, I dance it like this
Like, like flame

Como, como Candela
Como, como Candela

Like, like flame
Like, like flame

No smoke, no mirrors, mirrors
You see past everything
I can see clearer, ‘ll be needing
Wedding rings
In my mind I fanned your flame
Show me that you feel the same
By your side, I’m running wild, and I will
Light your flame

Anywhere you’ll go, follow
So don’t let go, ’cause we’ll be flying so high

Yo lo bailo así, lo bailo así
Como candela
Ella me ensena saber vivir
Fue la primera
Cambiaste mi vida
Con esa sonrisa
Yo lo bailo así, lo bailo así

I dance it like this, I dance it like this
Like flame
She taught me how to live
She was the first
You changed my life
With that smile
I dance it like this, I dance it like this

Como, como Candela
Como, como Candela
Como, como Candela (como Candela, woh)
Como, como Candela (como Candela, oh)
Como, como Candela

Like, like flame
Like, like flame
Like, like flame (like flame, woh)
Like, like flame (like flame, oh)
Like, like flame

¿Qué paso, que paso?
Que ella prendió candela
¿Qué paso, qué paso ?
Que ella prendió candela
¿Qué paso, qué paso?
Que ella prendió candela
¿Qué paso, qué paso?
Que ella prendió candela

What happened, what happened?
That she lit a flame
What happened, what happened?
That she lit a flame
What happened, what happened?
That she lit a flame
What happened, what happened?
That she lit a flame
